(Oh my gosh, I'm glad you're alright. That's sounds like a terrible experience :(

( Wait, didn't the guy in charge of the course, try to help you or anything?)

(He did! But he couldn't, like, get me or anything. It happened in like, ten seconds so it didn't really give anybody anytime to react.)

(Oh my gosh, I'm glad you're alright. That's sounds like a terrible experience :(

(The worst experience I've ever had. But at least now I have an interesting story to tell…….lol)

"No, it won't. I'll do- I'll- I'll do it," Paige choked out. She hugged Veda tightly. "It'll be okay."

Veda shook her head. "Paige." She said calmly. "I'm blind. You would be of more help and use than me. I've lived my life already." Veda soothed.

"No, I can't let you do that," Paige insisted.

Veda sighed and let her head drop on Paige's shoulder, not seeing the use in arguing. She had known Paige for barely five minutes, yet she already felt as if they had known each other for years.

"I'll die," Paige confirmed sorrowfully.

“Neither if you gets to dictate who’s going to die. No one in their right mind will vote for a child to die. In fact, there’s talk of everyone voting for themselves. Only problem is that people might take advantage of that and vote someone else, but like… it seems to be a solid chance of breaking the system,” Xander explained, trying to be patient and calm.

Veda's arm tightened around Paige. "That's a good idea." She told Xander.

"They'd most likely counter with a revote," Paige replied, returning Veda's hug.

“Maybe,” Xander replied. He was thinking about how wrong that could go, however. Of course someone could vote incorrectly, or perhaps if they tried to overthrow the system, they’d all be killed, and nobody won except the kidnapper.

Liam sighed. "It's one of the only solutions we have that could possibly work."

"Why don't we just break the vote booth? That why we don't have to vote, I mean if we vote ourselves, we might all die." Lixi spoke up.

"They could rig it. It's not safe either way. Just let them kill me, and you guys can all figure a way out while they're busy," Paige explained her plan sadly.

"No." Veda said, hugging Paige tighter. "I won't let you do that."

(Lol Paige and Veda are just clinging to each other like they've known each other since forever)

(OH HOW COOL WOULD IT BE IF THEY FOUND OUT THAT THEY WERE LONG-LOST SOUL SISTERS WITH POWERS OR SOMETHING!!!)

"No." Veda said, hugging Paige tighter. "I won't let you do that."

"Why?" Tears glistened in the corners of her eyes.

(Lol Paige and Veda are just clinging to each other like they've known each other since forever)

(OH HOW COOL WOULD IT BE IF THEY FOUND OUT THAT THEY WERE LONG-LOST SOUL SISTERS WITH POWERS OR SOMETHING!!!)

(LOVE DAT IDEA BUT WE MUST CLEAR IT W/ @writelikeyourerunningoutoftime FIRST)

John looked at the voting booth, "We shouldn't be planning for someone to die. You know, when do we vote? We should see how long we have to plan a way out of this," John walked over to the booth and examined it from the outside.

“I agree completely,” Xander said, “Instead or arguing about who leaves, we need to figure out how to all get out. I’m sure we have some time left still.”

"One hour." Lixi informed them.

(So, one of my friends, thought it was a good idea to drag me, who is deathly terrified of heights, onto a ropes course that's thirty feet off the ground. It was really hard and scary, but it was fine……….until we got to the hardest section, aka the fourth to last section. I was about half way through the section and my foot missed the next rope, leaving my foot dangling in the air. My other foot was wrapped in the last rope and then the sudden weight on my other foot pulled my foot free, slightly spraining my ankle in the process, and then my feet were dangling in the air and I was only being held up by my arms and a pretty thin rope. I freaked out for about ten seconds, then somehow pulled myself up, putting my feet in the next rope, scraping and spraining my elbow in the process. And I couldn't get down right then. NNNOOOOOOO, I had to finish the course, which consisted of the rest of that terrifying section, then three sections of about fifteen to twenty feet of tightrope. And wasn't even taken to the hospital when I got down because I didn't realize how hurt I was. So then when we figured out how hurt I was I got Tylenol and ice. And now I'm fine, other than how extremely sore I am.
Sorry, that was a long explanation.)

(Wow! What a story. I'm glad you're okay, that sounds scary)

(Lol Paige and Veda are just clinging to each other like they've known each other since forever)

(What do you think?)

"I'm voting for myself," Enzo informed them, "unless someone else has a viable idea. The rules only said we had to vote. You'd think they'd have specified if we couldn't vote for ourselves."

(Okay! WHERE IS NAT AT?)

((Update: I'm snickering alone in my room from saying that.))
